Nick Rainey web site updated with a new pine fresh scent and 72% more thievery.

The wording on the "first investor scam" is wrong, Admo:

"Similar to the recent World Series of Poker Main Event scam, he didn't sending payments and refused to answer questions, leaving some investors holding the bag."

Should be "send".


And seriously, while this is awfully impressive, why has no one found this cat yet? If you spend about $100, you can get a solid skip trace on anyone.

Also, if this guy really has a family and kids, how are the people who are owed not getting their money?!? There are pretty simple ways to ensure that you get your money returned to you in short order....

I'm not saying this as an "internet tough guy", but as a legitimate question. If this guy owed me thousands and not only lied about everything, but then moved and hid, I'd make sure I got my money. :shrug:

Because he doesn't have a family and kids?

SKlansky is the only tough guy on this site.

also "However, hospital staff who confirmed that they never received any funds from Nick Rainey."

People wonder why poker has a terrible reputation. Well...

People like this and the refusal to police itself. I hope he doesn't have the nerve to show his face at the WSOP next year.

Nick Rainey is a dirtbag. Saw the thread in the Staking forum and am disgusted with people like this.

Ce1ska,

Why in God's name are you giving him any benefit of the doubt. It's not like this even close to the first time he's been implicated in something totally scummy.

He deserves the money if not one of you who were scammed has the nutsack to find him in Vancouver and confront him on this issue.
This thread is just a dumb beat for poker players in general.

I'm actually surprised there isn't one. Many online communities have something like that, for instance:

Come on wtf

Man , sucks 2 be this dude about now, what he did is def scumbag title worthy however no one deserves there name dragged through mud like this , have a bit of compassion NVG

When you link to other sites from yours use: OPEN LINK IN NEW TAB. Thanks. Website rules otherwise.

Stating the truth about someone's actions is not "dragging their name through the mud" -- it's simply informing people of the truth, and holding him accountable.

If anyone is responsible for the muddiness of Nick Rainey's name, it's Nick Rainey.

He's obv scummy but in my dealings Nick he didn't come across as a complete scumbag that would outright scam someone. It also seems kind of dumb to plan this out, scam people, then payback 2.5k to investors.

the internets is forever. lulz

I'm on and off suicidal. If someone crossed me at the wrong time when I'm feeling suicidal and at the lowest I would kill them without a second thought, then off myself.
Not a level.

He's a criminal. There is nothing libelous in this thread.


I think you're confusing 'suicidal' with 'homicidal' imo. Maybe you should go to bat, and be the interwebs hero. Are you West Coast?

It only sucks to be this dude right now because Admo is the f'ing boss. If it wasn't for him (not NVG) then his life would probably be pretty dam peachy atm.

I feel fine these days and this guy didn't screw me over personally, so I'm not doing anything. I have nothing against him.

Excellent! You should set up a trip report and take lots of pictures while you're doing the deed!

Good job taking one for the team!


Edit: Nice try with the ninja edit.

that's not the way to deal with nick rainey either.

I havn't read this post of yours and only really skimmed the thread, but wtf do you have to say for yourself and when do you plan on paying back this 10k??

You should be ashamed of yourself Mr Turtle!

Ninja edit? I'm drunk and need several attempts to get a sentence right. Spell check only does so much.
For example this sentence reports no errors:

"I have steak on it happens what tomorrow came West Coast Canada we find him together we go, lets finds that cheats and got him a lesson. He needs too pay four cheat persons, he is deep troubles."

Yeah it would appear he really scaled back his spending habits too to help raise the money, what with the condo in downtown Vancouver and all. Far cheaper than grinding from... oh, I don't know, the moon.
